OK, I was too quick with this one: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402159 This has been fixed in 0.9.2, category checks are skipped when an old gnome-doc-utils.make is included in the tarball. Packages should build fine with the latest gnome-doc-utils, even when the tarball is generated using some outdated gnome-doc-utils package. _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
